Worst job you ever had

[*winter*]

God what a tossup lol.

Probably bartending for this weird old man who was alternating between sexually harassing us and ordering us to wear less clothing, and accusing us of stealing. I think I lasted a week.

I heard one of the women he hired (it was a revolving door for obvious reasons) had been an exotic dancer…so when he mentioned showing some skin, she wore one of her exotic dancer outfits. He wasn’t too happy…be careful what you wish for.

Honorary mention to unloading trucks at a thrift store. Sometimes I have flashbacks now if I’m handling donations at work (shudder)

I loved and hated my job at Six Flags/Astroworld in Houston. Loved it because of meeting new people. Hated it because we had to load at least 2 people per "antique taxi" and all these kids, who had planned on driving alone, would throw themselves on the ground and scream and their mothers would scream that we had ruined their whole vacation. All the time, over and over.

I insisted on a transfer and got put in the new gravity house. Loved the performances. Hated that it had just been built and we were sick as dogs every night from the paint and varnish fumes.

I am currently a birth and postpartum doula. I love it, but it certainly isn't easy.

My worst job was calling alumni to raise funds for the university where I was a grad student. It was torture.

Wow. You have a really interesting job. I can see how that can be stressful at times.
